Food Trucks in Newport News, VA

Signature Dish:
Chicken Adobo, chicken adobo sliders, vegetable pancit, and lumpias.

About Us:
I started House of Lumpia simply because of my love and passion for food and feeding people. My close friends gave me the name House of Lumpia because of my delicious lumpia and the different styles of Lumpia that I would come up with. I then decided it was time for me to start my business and show everyone was House of Lumpia has to offer.

Signature Dish:
Paninis, Paella, and Ratatouille

About Us:
I am Laura Daab, the Chef/Owner of Bikini Panini food truck and have been an avid cook most of my life. My favorite memories come from the yellow kitchen in my childhood home where my mom cooked and baked constantly. Learning from her and inspired by my favorite cuisine, I focus on Coastal Mediterranean cooking that incorporates lots of fresh, local, and seasonal ingredients.

Starting Bikini Panini was an unplanned opportunity and reinvention for me. My degree is in Marketing Communications and I was a theatrical producer for 20 years with a company I owned with my husband, Jim. We were hit hard by the Great Recession and shut our doors 5 years ago. I struggled to find a full-time, corporate job so I freelanced as a house painter, Marketing/PR Manager for a local theatre company, and worked on a frozen yogurt truck for a while.

One day, Jim drove by an auto auction near our house in Church Hill and saw a food truck being cleaned-up for sale. We bid on the truck and won! It’s a cute little step van that was repossessed from a Panini business in DC. “Why reinvent the wheel?’ I thought, so I spent the next 3 months fixing up the truck and developing my menu that along with 5 different Panini sandwiches includes Paella, Ratatouille with Curried Couscous and assorted baked good, ice cream and Italian Ices. I recently added a Kid’s menu that includes a Grilled Cheese Panini and a Breakfast menu with a Spanish Torta, Breakfast Panini and other goodies!

I’ve been in business since January of 2017 and have done very well. It’s challenging, rewarding, tiring, gratifying, and glorious! I belong to the Richmond Food Truck Association and I work pretty much all over the Metro Richmond Area. I’ve been a featured chef several times on WTRV’s “Virginia this Morning” demonstrating cooking segments of my food on Bikini Panini. Bikini Panini was also voted Best Food Truck in Virginia and featured in an article titled, “Top 50 Best Food Trucks in the US” by Eat This, Not That food magazine. You can find Bikini Panini at breweries and wineries, corporate lunches, street festivals, block parties, fundraisers, private events, weddings…pretty much any kind of an event that needs mobile food.

I’m working at what I love and have learned there is always time for another adventure and a challenge to reinvent oneself! Cheers!

Signature Dish:
Bussin Dog, Pulled Pork, and Bussin Fries

About Us:
Cooking has always been a past time that I enjoyed, but I felt as though remaining in the construction industry was the only way I would be able to support my family. Cooking became my time to relax and unwind with family and friends. Whenever I had free time, you could find me watching cooking shows, BBQ competitions, or anything involving cooking, grilling, and/or smoking on tv. I started to envision my hobby becoming more than just fun for my spare time. After catering a few weddings and events for friends, the overwhelming positive feedback I received was exactly what I needed to finally take a leap of faith, quit my day job, and venture into the food truck world. I'd always heard when you love what you do, you will never work a day in your life, and I've found that to be true. I love what I do and I continue to enjoy experimenting with new flavors and recipes. I personally guarantee that you will not be disappointed when you book Bussin BBQ for your next event.

Italian Water Ice & Creami Ices

About Us:
We are a family-owned business from the southern New Jersey area that moved to Virginia Beach in the early 2000s.

Signature Dish:
Philly Cheesesteak Egg rolls

Signature Dish:
Jerk Chicken

About Us:
After years of toiling away in various jobs, we realized that our true passion lay in the flavors and traditions of our upbringing. Growing up in the bustling melting pot of New York City, we were fortunate to be surrounded by a kaleidoscope of cultures and cuisines. But amidst the diversity, it was the homemade dishes passed down through generations that left the most indelible mark on our palates and hearts.

These recipes, steeped in the warmth and love of family gatherings, became the very essence of our culinary identity. They weren't just meals; they were connections to our heritage, reminders of our roots, and vessels for cherished memories. It was this deep-seated connection to our culture that inspired us to take a leap of faith and pursue our dreams.

With a fire in our hearts and the flavors of our childhood in our minds, we set out on a mission: to share the authentic tastes of the Caribbean with the bustling streets of Richmond city. We knew that we had something special to offer - a culinary journey that would transport our customers to the sun-drenched shores and vibrant markets of Jamaica and Puerto Rico.

And so, Juju's Caribbean Food was born. More than just a business, it's a labor of love, a tribute to our heritage, and a testament to the power of following your dreams. Join us on this delicious adventure as we bring a taste of the Caribbean to the streets of Richmond City, one mouthwatering dish at a time.

Signature Dish:
Waffledog. Like a corn dog but instead of cornbread the hot dogs are encased in a waffle.

About Us:
I have always loved working in the restaurant business and as a Navy wife it was easy finding waitressing positions that fit our schedule when we would transfer to new duty stations. I have dreamed of opening my own restaurant someday and when the opportunity to purchase a food trailer came along I couldn't pass it up. The trailer was used for cotton candy and popcorn at events and we kept that along with adding waffle dogs and stick waffles. It has been fun and exciting experimenting with different waffle recipes including a yummy cinnamon bun waffle that was a big seller at a recent event.
